Abstract

Abstract: Ergonomic risk assessment plays a crucial role in preventing risks to the health and well-being of workers. Thus, the present study addresses the evaluation of ergonomic risks in the company Laser Diagnostico, where the dangers were identified and the risks related to postural load and repetitive movement were evaluated, the ergonomic evaluation methods RULA and MODSI were applied to analyze risk levels in the workplaces and propose prevention measures to improve ergonomic conditions. The obtained result shows risk levels that vary from moderate to very high with both the RULA and MODSI methods, which demand immediate and exhaustive corrective action. The prevalence of discomfort at the level of upper limbs was identified that would eventually derive musculoskeletal disorders. This work is aimed at proposing improvements that must be adapted to the specific needs of each position, so that employees can perform their tasks efficiently and without risks to their health.
